Madagascar trip, day 2, +Actifit Report May 24 2019

This was a strange day. Only 10k steps, but 8600+ kilometers.

---

Day started in Riga airport, Latvia.
Boeing 767-300 takeoff as promised, around 01:50 AM
This jett is least comfortable I have ever been. No individual air streams, no ajustable lights, no personal video screens, earphones. Onboard wifi is a joke. Just a few outdated videos, streaming clips, arcade games, all from last century. Very very limited flight info, maps.

3AM :
Midnight Lunch was very poor, beverage selection only from 2 - orange drink and water.

8AM:
After 6+ hours in the air, we are cruising now at 16000 ft somewhere above Sudan.
Four more hours to go to Nosy Be

---

11AM: Just before landing - a small "plastic" breakfast. A coffee served was probably the worst coffee I've ever tasted in my life.

12:15PM:
Rough touch landing in Fascene airport, Nosy Be island, Madagascar. Maybe this run way is just to short in this tiny airport for the giant 767.

.......
2:45PM:
Long, very long procedures at arival, paying (€35) for and getting visas, etc. Took us over two hours, in a not airconditioned premises, and got to stop and talk to 8 (eight!) officers and policements, before we could pick our tour guide at exit.
.......
3PM :
~30 km ride from airport to hotel was over 1 hour long. Road quality is very low, lots of holes.
Much green , and lots of poor shacks, and tiny funy markets behind the windows.





.......
Our small hotel, 32 rooms total, was found in cossy quite place. Hotel premisses, beach, lunch, stuff hospitality etc etc all was just magnificent.
Long trip complete, time for relax , massages, some tasty free soft drinks.

Stay tuned for more on the comin days
